Adidas has signed a 16-year-old sprinter who is being hailed as the next Usain Bolt.
At the young age of 16, Australian sprinter Gout Gout has already made a name for himself in the world of track and field. His incredible speed and natural talent have earned him the title of "the next Usain Bolt". Recently, he signed a contract with Adidas, joining the ranks of other sports superstars like Lionel Messi, Steph Curry, and Patrick Mahomes.

In an interview with Citius Mag, Gout expressed his excitement about joining the Adidas team and his determination to continue pushing himself to new heights. He also credits his parents who moved to Australia from South Sudan two years before he was born.

Gout has been turning heads since 2014 when he ran the 100m race in just 10.57 seconds at the age of 14, setting an Australian U16 record. He also holds the record for the 200m. This year, he won a silver medal in the 200m at the World U20 Championships and was part of Australia's 4x100m relay team that finished fifth. With personal best times of 10.29 in the 100m and 20.87 in the 200m, Gout is on track to become a future Olympic gold medalist for Australia.

Some even compare Gout to the legendary Usain Bolt, eight-time Olympic champion. He recently broke Bolt's U16 200m record at the World U20 Championships, and Australian Olympic hero Sally Pearson has suggested that he may be the next Bolt. Gout's coach, Diane Sheppard, also has high praise for him, describing him as a humble and hardworking athlete.

Gout's journey to success has not been easy. He was born in Queensland in 2007 and faced challenges as a young athlete, but his determination and dedication have led him to this moment. As he continues to train and compete, Gout remains grateful for the opportunity to make a name for himself and inspire others with his incredible speed and humble attitude.

With the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles on the horizon, Gout is set to make a name for himself on the world stage. And with his talent, hard work, and support from Adidas and his community, there's no doubt that he will continue to break records and make Australia proud.
